The initial FUSE passthrough interface has the issue of introducing an ioctl which receives as a parameter a data structure containing a pointer. What happens is that, depending on the architecture, the size of this struct might change, and especially for 32-bit userspace running on 64-bit kernel, the size mismatch results into different a single ioctl the behavior of which depends on the data that is passed (e.g., with an enum). This is just a poor ioctl design as mentioned by Arnd Bergmann [1]. Introduce the new FUSE_PASSTHROUGH_OPEN ioctl which only gets the fd of the lower file system, which is a fixed-size __u32, dropping the confusing fuse_passthrough_out data structure.

Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
